bugs.inits

a list with <code>n.chains</code> elements; each element of the
 list is itself a list of starting values for the WinBUGS model,
 or a function creating (possibly random) initial values

inits

n.chains

number of significant digits used for WinBUGS
 input, see <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/formatC?package=R2WinBUGS&version=2.1-21" data-mini-rdoc="R2WinBUGS::formatC">formatC</a></code>

digits

name for the inits files R write the inits into.

inits.file

Write files <code class="file">inits1.txt</code>, <code class="file">inits2.txt</code>, etc., in
 the working directory for WinBUGS to read - for internal use.

internal

file

Invoke a 'BUGS' model in 'OpenBUGS' or 'WinBUGS', a class "bugs" for 'BUGS'
results and functions to work with that class.
Function write.model() allows a 'BUGS' model file to be written.
The class and auxiliary functions could be used with other MCMC programs, including 'JAGS'.
